My appologies, but I'm an ssh tunneling n00b.Īnyway steps 1 & 2 work fine, but when I "emerge sync" on my local machine I get: I'm in the same situation and would love to do this, but I have (probably an ssh config problem).

#Rsync through ssh proxy firewall code#
Looks like this format for $SYNC is looked through the emerge code and it only seems to accept "rsync://*" and "cvs://*" formats (and the metadata function). Maybe I could play with setting $SYNC to something to top I tried setting the RSYNC_RSH environment variable, but that seems to get ignored (presumably because of the "rsync://" prefix in $SYNC. The port forwarding method on the OP solves my requisite for not running an rsync server on my home machine (and thus opening up another port on the firewall), but shouldn't there be a way to integrate that into the SYNC="." setting in nf, making it do the equivalent of: Posted: Tue 5:15 pm Post subject: maybe I'm confused too The first time I ran it, it took 2 hours! Using rsync properly is a far better solution - that's why Portage uses it.
It downloads the entire Portage tree every time. I disagree - I've been using emerge-webrsync for the last few weeks and it's hideously slow. It's the inside-out problem.Ī webrsync is the fastest (and easiest) way to do it, stillĬomputer science is no more about computers than astronomy is about telescopes. This is about rsync tunnelled over ssh, not rsync using ssh. Only if you have ssh access to the final host you are trying to rsync to/from.

But I can ssh to a machine outside the firewall that can. I have a Gentoo machine behind a firewall that doesn't let rsync through.
